How to challenge your home property tax assessment in NY State
Property values have dropped in a lot of areas in New York State. These are the steps to challenge your home property tax assessment in NY (Note there is an example near bottom) First Step Get an estimate of how much your property is worth (full market value) today. (check with an appraiser, bank your insurance company to confirm the value in writing) Second Step Get the amount your property is currently assessed from your town or city. It should be on your tax bill. Third Step Get the Residential assessment ratio (RAR) for your town village or city go to this link http://orps1.orpts.ny.gov/cfapps/MuniPro/ Select your county; then select your town or city; then select RAR Information take the most current RAR.

Fourth Step Then take the Residential assessment ratio (RAR) you got from the table and multiply it by the current value of your home. This should give you the current home property tax assessment of your home plus or minus 5 percent. Fifth Step In most towns, villages and cities you must file your challenge/grievance in writing we suggest you file it a few weeks before these deadlines. Note If your property is located in a village that assesses property, you may have to file two assessments grievances, one for the village and one for the town. To grieve both assessments, you are required to file two separate Form RP-524 with both the town and village. You will have to repeat first to fifth steps above selecting your village this time. If you miss the deadline for one you can still file for the other. |
Sixth Step If you are dissatisfied with the decision of on your tax assessment grievance by your municipality, you may appeal your assessment again via: ———————– Example ——————– Step 1) Your home is currently worth $450,000 (check with an appraiser etc to confirm) |
———-Extra Information————- If the RAR for your municipality is greater than one (1) that means your whole town/city/village is over assessed at more than full market value which is unlawful in NY. However, the only method available to force a municipality to obey the law and reduce everyone’s assessment down to full market value is a lawsuit in New York State Supreme Court. (a trial court in NY). More Information on RARs https://www.tax.ny.gov/research/property/equal/rar/index.htm |
